What could the reward be this time? A legendary weapon?Only time will tell.....

Comment by ED209

Judgement of the Black Prince has been moved to a later patch, and this achievement now focuses on Wrathion's interaction with and being judged by the August Celestials.

The quests that are currently available stand like this:A Reckoning-the lead-on quest from Patch 5.2 (The Thunder King)Celestial Blessings-Based on whether you want to heal, fight or defend Wrathion, one of these tasks must be completed based on what class/spec you excel in.

Can you believe how chatty they were? I just wanted them to hand us our reward, but they would just talk talk talk talk talk! I'm sorry, where were we?

Hilarious in hindsight considering you have to sit and listen to Wrathion's monologues throughout the previous legendary quests in Pandaria.Preparing to Strike-Lead on quest to The Siege of Orgrimmar.

Anyone know if there's a way to see how many people have finished this achievement on a particular realm?

Hi , I am a sv hunter who is in mostly lfr gear and i found this fight to be a pain in the butt.after a few death and talent changes 5 total it became a piece of cake using these skills .Posthaste,Spirit Bond,Thrill of the hunt ,lynx's Rush,Barrage

Glyphs:Ice trap ,Animal Bond,Mending

When in the fight - dont use your all your skills at once - save them - for when the adds pop up -burn them down using Barrage with Ice trap with Stampede -then the boss burn using rapid fire and arcane with ss-by now he should be at about 25 % or less - he will go into that annoying clone phase -this is the time for Barrage with Readiness for the 2 phases he will do .by now he is less than 5 % burn him while kiting the adds - and of course use Explosive Shot whenever its up and viable for the situation - done go get your cloak -

I am not the best at explaining fights -but i hope this helps other low geared ppl .

Comment by Melorand

For Yu'lon, if you don't have the gear to handle everything: when she says know not when to fight, she really means it. This fight becomes stupidly simple if you just leave him when he splits.

When it starts, nuke Wrathion, keeping max dots on him and cc/kite/freeze adds until he splits. Ignore the adds, as she says. Just get them away from you. Then run out on the balcony behind her and hang out. Just wait. Re-cc the adds when they come. Wrathion eventually will run up, and should be low HP. Nuke/dot him again, and if he splits again, run back in the temple up to the door. Rinse and repeat.

Comment by FireKatKid

Is Yu'lon the only one that gets a "cinema scene" or is it just based on your spec perhaps? I was a ranged dps, so it could be that.

Comment by Domri

As a 521 Spriest, I sort of cheated here. I could not seem to out run the fire oozes. Void Tendrils only seemed to grab 2 or 3. I had never healed before but I read that holy priests were not having any problems on the healing task. I re-gemmed, enchanted, glyphed, and reforged everything to holy. I was successful after my 2nd attempt on Holy after I read how to holy heal. Since you are only healing two people, it was amazingly easy. A successful attempt will take 6 - 8 minutes.

I hate to admit that I gave up, but some fights are really designed for classes that can teleport or blink their way out of trouble.

Comment by Ramlar

Shadow Priest solution.

I had a hard time doing this quest because of the adds making me busy so i couldnt dps the boss. Finaly i managed to find a way to do it. Its not pretty i know but atleast it got the job done. =)

1. Start the boss and dps with all you got until he start to spawn the adds. Then run away against the dragon on the balcony.

2. Jump up on the fence and make your way all the way to the back so you stand behind the dragon. As soon as you jump up the adds stop coming so do this as soon as you get out on the balcony.

3. Jump down and the boss will rush you. As long as you dont go to close of the entrance the adds should not come for you. Dps the boss and avoid his abilitys. Void tendrills are a great weapon of choice hear to get him to stand still for a longer period of time.

4. When boss runs inside, jump up the fence again. He will now do his mirror images so just wait for him to finish before jumping down again and repeat step nr 3.

Depending on your gear it will take a couple of rounds to get him down. I was itemlvl 521 and got him down on the third round. This should work for any ranged dps class. Good luck! =)

Comment by Westwindlord

I've completed this challenge as Retribution Paladin with ilvl 518 gears. I've attempted like close to 30 times to figure out a way to do it.

Preparation

Make sure you have reset your talents to comprise of Pursuit of Justice, Repentance, Eternal Flame and Light's Hammer.

Prepare the required food that increases your strength, have the Celestial Offering coin, some bandages and also healing potions in bag. Don't forget your Flask of Winter's Bite.

Execution

Starts off the fight with your Inquisition active.

Cast Repentance on Wrathion once he started to cast falling fireballs. Right after he is in meditation mode, the ooze will spawn.

Make a few hit on one ooze, and then run away from Wrathion, where those oozes will move towards you. Once those oozes are near, cast Light's Hammer among them, and starts killing them using your Hammer of the Righteous and also Divine Storm.

Heal up yourself with Flash of Light or bandage or Eternal Flame (keep your Lay on Hands and healing potions on emergency use).

Start hitting Wrathion after you are healed up, right after he recovered from meditation mode, he'll cast the fire pools, you need to immediately cast Rebuke to interrupt this.

Once he is interrupted, blow your Avenging Wrath, Guardian of Ancient Kings and Holy Avenger, and start whacking him. You can easily avoid the frontal arc. With right movement, you should be able to get him down to approximate 50% health before he starts casting another fallig fireballs. Please note that in between this fight, he'll cast another pool of fire, and this must be interrupted. When he is reaching about 50% health, the first ooze will start resurrecting and move towards you. Once you notice the first ooze appearing alive again, immediately cast Repentance on Wrathion again to put him into meditation mode.

Kill each ooze one by one, using Light's Hammer and Divine Storm, heal up yourself again before whacking Wrathion again.

This time, when you start whacking Wrathion, he'll run to the center to start casting multiple images of himself. You must immediately cast Repentance on him again before he successfully casted that.

Once the oozes start to come alive again, take them down again using Light's Hammer or Divine Storm.

Repeat step 5 to step 9 until Wrathion is dead.

Key to Winning the Fight

Wrathion must not allowed to cast the multiple image at all.

Wrathion must be interrupted in casting the pool of fire at all time.

If the above is done successfully, you'll be able to kill Wrathion easily, as long as he is not casting his multiple images at all. As throughout the fight, the rez timer of oozes will definitely overlap with Wrathion casting his multiple images. This must be avoided as having both multiple Wrathion images and oozes up is suicidal.

Hope the above helps. Good luck to every Retribution Paladin attempting this.

Comment by carens

Shadow priests CAN do this! But it's tricky, and takes a little preparation.

This fight really takes place completely on the balcony. And you will only be able to do it in stages -- hitting him and wearing down his health a little in each 'round' of fighting. Do NOT engage the elements! Instant wipe - those blobs hit HARD and move FAST. You MUST stay on the balcony, and AWAY from the stairs, or those things will come up the stairs and after you again.

To prepare: First create a macro to /target Wrathion. During the 'intermission' stage when Wrathion casts his mirror images on the main floor it is difficult to even see him let alone target him. The images each have 1k health, while Wrathion has 20 million, and eventually you will target him -- that is when the images are dead and you can begin another 'round' of fighting.

Second, practice running to the very BACK of the balcony and jumping to the top level of the fence. If you miss and fall you're dead (or if you're quick and Levitate you'll be almost dead...LOL). Either way you'll need to start over. If you don't die and run back in Wrathion is not there, and the fight is over. Don't worry -- as soon as you hit the gong again he will reappear.

Third -- and this was the key! -- make sure you have the talent for Angelic Feather. Speed helps! Also, talent in to help proc instant casts: Divine Insight and From Darkness, Comes Light. I also had Halo and Angelic Bulwark.

The fight:Wrathion will not engage until you hit him. Before the fight begins you can place one Feather at the base of the stairs, and I placed the other two on either side of the balcony circle. You can even place the Feathers before you hit the gong -- they will stay put.

The MOST important part of the fight is the beginning. Forget about the 'extra' damage for hitting from behind -- it's not worth dying over. From behind you have too far to run to get to the top of the balcony fence, and those blobs will chase you up the stairs. IF YOU HAVE BLOBS ON THE BALCONY THE FIGHT IS OVER. There is no way you can dps those things down, and they keep coming -- faster and faster.

To engage Wrathion I stood in the center at the bottom of the stairs -- in front of where I placed my Feather. I sent in my Shadow Fiend, IMMEDIATELY hit FADE (to drop aggro), and then turned around and RAN (over the Feather) and jumped to the top of the fence. Then you stay on the top of the fence and WAIT. Eventually Wrathion will come up there, but you won't have any blobs with him. You WILL have red bubbly pools of goop -- stay OUT of them. If you get caught the blobs will spawn and the fight is over. This is why speed helps. You can maybe get ONE good hit with a Mind Blast -- but then just keep throwing out instant dots and KEEP RUNNING. Why the other feathers placed at the sides of the balcony circle will help.

Eventually you'll have an 'intermission', and Wrathion will return to the main floor and cast his mirror images. For this you return to the top of the fence at the back of the balcony -- you have no aggro there. And heal up! And you can again place Feathers around the back part of the circle on the floor of the balcony. From this position it is very hard to see Wrathion -- why the /target Wrathion macro will help. Eventually the images will drop dead and you will only target Wrathion. There is no need to rush -- I waited until my Shadow Fiend was off cool down to begin again.

Now you step off the fence to the floor of the balcony. When you do Wrathion will re-engage and come up the stairs after you. Stay at the BACK part of the balcony. Sic your Fiend on him, get off a Mind Blast and a Halo, then RUN and dot as you did at the beginning. And stay OUT of those red pools. They will bubble, but no blobs will spawn -- IF you stay out of them! Stay away from the stairs, or blobs will come up the stairs after you, and the fight will be over. This will continue for about 30 seconds, and then you get another 'intermission'. The pools will disappear and you return to the fence to heal, place feathers and wait for your cool downs to reset.

Rinse and repeat! It took me about five or six 'rounds' of fighting to eventually wear him down and kill him, and the fight took about 15-20 minutes waiting for the cool downs to reset. PATIENCE!

I can't tell you how many hours I spent -- and how much gold for repairs. Or how many ways I tried to get him before I figured out this combination. Good luck -- and hope this helps! And you can wear your new back with PRIDE!

Comment by Coriam

Only one thing to add to all the other tips on the page: if you need more than one attempt, reload your UI between each attempt; if someone has whispered you this will reset the "reply" function so you won't end up trying to attack/heal and filling your reply bar with "111223222211455512332wwwwwwwwwwweeeeeeee".... speaking from experience >_>

Comment by GoRozZo

Challenge for melee (White Tiger) can be easily completed without problems from the first attempt. You just need to know: always stay behind Wrathion, interrupt his cast and its enough.If you still have some problems - watch this video-completion of the challenge by Rogue:http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QxhWCjDC8s8

Comment by Ouhalla

Here's my advice for defeating Wrathion and what I did as 531 Ret Pally.

First of all you're gonna have to have patience and determination. You have to expect to fail many times before you get this. Sure some ace players might be getting it in a couple three tries but they are the exception not the rule. If you're an average player like me you're gonna need at least a half dozen tries just to learn the fight. It took me about a dozen or so tries anyway to finally defeat Wrathion. It's a complicated fight esp at first but it gets simpler the more you do it.

Multiple targeting is crucial for this fight so let's start there. I used Charred Glyph, switched to from and talented into Light's Hammer for his multiple images and adds aka Netharion's Tears (and for self heals on the AoE Charred Glyph). You will find that this combo makes AoEing much easier and effective

To start the fight, I immediately used my potion of Mogu Power got behind him and popped my DPS burst macro. Had him down to 80-85% health in about 20 seconds. From there it was just a matter of interrupting his cast of Blood of the Deathborn, getting out of it the one or two times I missed the interrupt, always staying behind him and AoEing down his multiple images and adds. I was able to time my burst macro on one occasion for Netharion's Tears. Since my burst macro includes Holy Avenger I could AoE with big DPS gain while I single targeted Wrathion (since each attack gives you 3 charges of holy power making possible almost continuous use of Divine Storm for 18 seconds).

You must stay behind him as best you can, both for the big DPS gain and to survive as his frontal arc hits like a mac truck. Interrupting Blood of the Deathborn is important as is getting out of it if you miss the interrupt. Try to use in conjunction with your burst macro. Ideally you use it to interrupt Wrathion AND bust your burst macro. Use Exorcism as much as you can on the adds and multiple image phases and make sure to switch to Seal of Righteousness too for the adds and multiple images

Use your self heals eg Flash of Light whenever you can or have to. Remember you got a big get out of jail free card with Lay on Hands Bubble and heal is a solid tactic, believe me lol. A healing potion helps too.

Comment by Betonkocka

I just did yesterday as a Retribution Paladin (Peti, EU-Azuremyst).Yesterday, I could do for first try. Couple of weeks ago I tried 20+ times, but failed. I guess, they nerfed the blobs a bit, and may be the Wrathion images too. The big area spell still a bit bugged, as I was out of the area, but still hit me.

I have the Pursuit of Justice talent, this is the key element. Plus the Seal of Righteousness, as this makes better AOE damage. This is not a normal melee fight where you stand tight, but more like a running event on the Olympics.

Preparation: food and flask buffed, celestial blessings.

Start with all offensive CD-s and try to burn him down before the blobs and all other problems. Then start running away from him. He will jump on your head, so don't worry if you, as a melee, are too far away from him. If you show your back to him, you can still hit with judgement, or self heal with Word of Glory. If you have the Flash heal instant, heal yourself. If you can, hammer him down for 6 seconds, try to interrupt (I forgot, just hammered him 2-3 times during the fight). It is good to hammer and burst him with offensive CDs, as at least you have 6 seconds to dps without disturbing.

The images: someone said you can interrupt his spell. It is true, if you are close to him. If not, use your AOE spells to kill the images; 2-3 shots should be enough.

Same with the blobs; run away from him, run away from the blobs and kill them with AOE or one-by-one. During the fight, I did not change my seal, stayed with the AOE one.During the fight, I needed one healing pot and I did not use bubble, nor Lay on Hand, as with the running I did not needed.

As I said, most probably they nerfed down the adds, as with my last attempts, I could reach the end of the first image phase and then the blobs always killed me. Then I gave it up for several weeks, and now for the first try I did it quite easily. And there was just 2 points increase in my gear during those few weeks.

One more tip: you can go to LFR, ask a friendly warlock at start for Healthstone, leave LFR, and you have 3 healthstones for this fight as some extra healing. I did not use for this fight, but used for the unsuccessful attempts in the past.

i just did this as a frost mage. it took me about 10 tries until i noticed the debuff wrathion has - you do 250% MORE damage if you attack him from behind. As soon as I figured that out, beat him the first time. just freeze the adds in space..didn't use pet. kite him around and keep hitting him every proc you get from BEHIND. He'll drop like a sack of beans. GL

Comment by Huguesdepayn

FOR ALL YOU DEPRESSED HUNTERS OUT THERE THAT ARE HAVING DIFFICULT KILLING WRATHION

This quest was obviously not designed with hunters in mind. There is NO blessing that is suitable (INT is not very useful to Hunters!)

I initially found this fight VERY hard as a Beast Mastery hunter. I tried about 30 times and the most I could get him down to was about 42% ( at 1 point I actually thought I was never going to get my Legendary Cloak). So.......

My advice for winning this fight before you throw the PC through a window is to respec as MM. Get your flasks and potions (Spring Blossom and Virmens Bite), I also took bandages and Health Pots - although funnily enough didnt actually use them on my winning attempt.

At start of fight, stand directly behind Wrathion and blow all your CD's (I initiated the fight applying Hunters Mark,Serpent StingSerpent Sting then Barrage before throwing everything I had at him). Keep doing this (from behind) until he summons the first set of adds. This is when you need to back off and deal with the adds. I basically kept as far away as possible from Wrathion until they were all down - if there r more adds then deal with them in similar way, if not get back behind Wrathion and throw as much DPS as you can until he starts to summon his Mirror Images. At this point I ran onto the balcony (I read that you had to disengage or feign death, but could not get this to work) and dealt with any adds that came my way (leaving my pet on Wrath until he came to help with adds), you should also have some time between adds to use bandages and/or Health pots while waiting for mirror images to go. After the Mirror Images disappeared (I didnt engage them at any point) Wrathion came onto the balcony, where I then ran behind him (my CD's had all reset by this point) and hit him with everything - before I knew it, he was down to about 1 or 2% where I finished him off.

In all, I probably started this fight 40 times max, most of which were before I changed spec - I probably killed him on my 5th attempt with MM.

Hopefully this guide will help you guys forego the frustration that I went through for about 2 hours before finally downing Wrathion and getting 1 step further to obtaining the Legendary Cloak

Comment by datgrl

My two cents as a BM hunter with my gator -

I took the following talents: Spirit Bond, Power Shot, Posthaste, Dire Beast and Lynx Rush.I used the following glyphs: Animal Bond, Liberation, MisdirectionI also had Drums of Forgotten Kings which anyone can use. Check the Auction House or look for a Leatherworker with at least 450 skill.

To start, I stayed in the main area, dps-ing from behind and avoiding the damage Empowered Blood and Reign of Fire. Once I got the signal from Yu'lon that the mirror images were about to spawn for Inferno , I started making my way to the area behind Yu'lon on the balcony. Speed potions may be helpful here.

I still had the bloods following me and managed to kill most of them down on the main floor. Even though I Feigned Death, the 2 that were left continued up on the balcony. I continued to Feign and they continued attacking for a good 5-10 seconds. I knew I would be killed eventually so I got up and took them out. I stayed back by the railing until the mirror images were over. Wrathion came up to the balcony and went through the Reign/Blood phase. The bloods spawned up on the balcony and I'd just use everything I had at my disposal to keep them off me and on my pet, maintaining its health. Misdirect, Animal Bond and Spirit Bond seemed to do the trick, as well has having the ability to Powershot them away if they got too close to me.

Wrathion went back down to the main area a 2nd time and did the mirror images. I used this time to heal up and waited for the next phase of bloods and fire. I was able to complete the quest after this 2nd phase, remaining on the balcony as close to the rail as I could manage.

When Yu'lon says "Seek out your true enemy! Do not be fooled of his false images!", you need to be back at the rail as far as you go. I tried jumping on the rails as some suggested and ended up outside on a little platform where everything on the balcony evaded and Wrathion remained down on the main floor of the temple. I'd still get hit by Reign of Fire, though.

Comment by Talboth

Don't be mislead if you are doing Niuzao's challenge as a Protection Warrior- as the only tanking class that doesn't have a pile of self-heals other than a talent (I recommend Second Wind)- even with a Shado-Pan daily quest NPC with you- the tank challenge is NOT a pushover. I had full t16 LFR set with the 4pc bonus and still had to try this many times to get it down including the use of a Master Healing Potion. The secret I found was simply to "stand and deliver" and face Deathwing head on only stepping back to avoid his AOE effects and interrupting what you could.

For a Shado-Pan NPC I had the warrior DPS - Chao The Voice- she survived relatively well, handled the blood adds fairly well, and even interrupted Deathwing once or twice.

While Paladins, Druids, Monks, and DKs are finding the tanking challenge a joke- don't do as I did and go in assuming it's a cakewalk as a protection warrior. (LOL)

Comment by johnmully

This tip is for all classes- Kill the Spectrals on timeless isle and stockpile some Pi'jiu brews Bubbling Pi'jiu BrewThick Pi'jiu BrewMisty Pi'jiu Brew. Use all 3 b4 hitting gong. They stay active for 10 min and have a cooldown for the same. The brewmaster will do his spinning kick and pick up most of if not all adds. You def want to start behind wrathion at start blow all cd's and when he turns to face you step through him so you are behind him again for the damage boost. when he starts dropping adds is when you need space. These things make life so easy you will love yourself. My first guy I did this on was my lock and I did it first try easy with vw and NOTHING else, lucky. Mage was a pain in the butt lotsa fails cuz I tried all the shortcuts which didn't work so I gave up to farm brews. After that did it first time with all three brews easily! Now today did it on my hunter and dropped 2 brews a thick an bubbling and used my chromag pet for hero and killed in less than a min. Trick is to start behind and just step through him to get behind him again. Get your brews and enough to use over again (10min cd just like hero) also get a lock buddy to give you stones for healing. Will be doing my spriest in a month then my shaman shortly after. Hope this helps a little. Oh the balcony trick I couldn't get to work and it annoyed me.

Update 6/27/14: I have since finished this on my Spriest and E-Shaman that's 5 toons total and I have to say the shaman was super easy as well. If you have a hero type buff Mage, Sham, Hunter(corehound) and use the Pi'ju Brews you will be shocked at how quickly the event ends! I have not done the cloak for any mele classes yet that will be prob in a couple months. But I can't tell you again how easy this quest becomes when using these brews. You still have to move around a bit from adds but I have since using these brews on 4 toons not died and it's taken less than a minute for victory. My BM Hunter was the easiest by far just from the super intial dps burts from cd's and the 3 brews. I have a boomkin I will be doing in a week so I will update again. I have a feeling that ones gonna be challenging. Also my gear on most of my toons was around 530+ range some Ordos gear, LFR tier gear

Update 7/23/14: I finished up on my Boomkin last week and died in about 30-45 secs when theres like 15 of him cuz I was stupid. 2nd try did it in 45sec I just mde sure I was always behind him and started in solar but it is harder on on a druid for me cuz theres not enough if any burst but yes the Brews work so well. They pick up the adds and all u really have to focus on is getting behind and dpsing wrathion. I have a feral druid up next I'm on empires but that wont be for a while going back to work so my summer of fun is coming to a close. Also have my DK and Pali finishing up valor this week!

Just did the Temple of the Red Crane challenge to get my holy pally his healing cloak. Before the fight began Wrathion disappeared! Obviously a bug as this did not happen with my resto shaman. Even with this annoying bug in play it is still doable however, just make sure to be healing Wrathion via his unit frame on the right side of the screen. Also run to intercept the magma bullets when that phase begins, as you can only guess that Wrathion is in the dead center of the room.

Hunter: This wasn't as bad as the Thunderforge battle because it's just you, Mr. Light in the Loafers, and his red snotgurgles in the Temple of the Jade Serpent.

I watched the videos and read the guides. The best suggestion was to switch to pretty much anything not beast mastery. I run BM 100% of the time, so I just opened up the other specialization tab, switched to survival and used that as my playground. Any spell I was not going to use (my professions, Distracting shot, etc.) were completely removed from my display. (I use Bartender) That reduced the distractions. Having the pet on passive and then telling it to attack Wrathion removed the distraction of the pet going from target to target. I'd been flexing, lfr-ing and so on for a while, so the gear was at 540 already. I decided to just enhance everything including the cape to be replaced so it was all 2/2. Blew all my cooldowns in the first 2 seconds - crows, dire beast, stampede, whatever...

All that stuff about the balcony? Well, jumping on the rail gave me a quick funeral as my little gobby hit the ground in a green and festive splat. Feign death? Pft. All that fiddly bit about waiting and dodging and kiting? Nope.

I somehow managed to keep dotting W while spraying at the red blobs. No mirror images, one one or maybe two waves of red blobs. I wound up finishing it wedged between a gong and the wall while swearing vigorously.

After gleefully getting the cape from Mr. LitL(above), I was chagrined (read: swearing like a sailor) when I found out I had to do more quests. Oh yay. No one is doing the Celestials this late in the xpac. Shoot me now.

Demonology Warlocks have some trouble with this until you realize the two key elements. Engage Wrathion from the terrace. While engaging him at the start from the top of the stairs he sometimes goes out of range. Be patient, he will come back in and don't wait too long before setting the demon to passive (first key) or you will pull adds up onto the terrace, I believe you can just hit him a few times with your demon on passive from the start, as long as you establish aggro on the prince. If you aggro any adds you must kill them before going to the back of the terrace where Wrathion cannot call up adds (second key). Go all the way to the back of the terrace, (I put my demonic circle on the top of the fence) wait patiently, Wrathion will come to you, he will be unable to call up adds and its a simple evade the ground effects and burn, baby burn. I guess the third key to this fight is patience. I tried everything else for months. Until a true PVE gamer turned me on to this strategy.

Wrathion challenge as a Holy Priest:

So I have already done the rogue and warlock challenges. This one is pretty much the same. Don't over complicate things. Keep your wits and don't worry about how fast Deathwing dies. All you need to do is keep wrathion up longer than Deathwing. (If you read my rogue vs wrathion post, its the same, dps isn't the issue, just stay alive longer than wrathion.)

Pretty much the same idea here.

Have up.... Inner Firepower word: fortitudeChakra: Serenety

Start of fight: Set focus on WrathionHot Wrathion with renew and power word shieldUse Power Word : Solace (from talent tree) to Dot Vision of Deathwing when you canUse Holy Word: Serenety to heal Wrathion and refresh renew (keep renew up at all times)Use Prayer of mending on Wrathion.

Adds phases:

Blobs.. Holy Nova while you kite them, stay around the edges of the pack of blobs so you dont get hit as muchMove away from Wrathion and toss out a Halo if he is taking damage while you deal with the blobs

Elemental adds (darts) phase

USE LIGHTWELL.. place it between Wrathion and one of the Elementals. *effectively nullifies attacks from that direction, leaving you only 3 to deal with* Use Power Word Shield on yourself (will absorb 2 darts) *or did for me*Run to intercept any darts that are not going to hit the lightwell

Use greater heal to heal Wrathion when he is getting hit, after Serenety (and renew) and prayer of mending are up (while these are on cd)

Shadowfiend for mana regen (macro to trinket if you have it)Hymn of hope if you really need manaMana potion (which you can macro if you wish)

Keep your head, don't panic and improvise as necessary

Repeat and win!

** Since I mentioned the rogue (melee) fight... I'll add this...**

2 guys are out hiking when they see a big black bear about 40 feet ahead of them. The bear spots them and starts running toward them, attacking!. So the 2 guys start running for their lives! One guy slows a bit, gets his back pack and pulls out a pair of running shoes, drops the pack, stops to kick off 1 hiking boot and put on 1 running shoe, runs a few yards and does the same for the other foot.

His buddy says ARE YOU BLOODY NUTS? You can't out run that bear!He replies... Oh, I don't have to out run the bear. I only have to out run YOU.

Upon completion and when you return to get your pretty new cloak....

Wrathion says:

Welcome back, champion!Excellent work with the celestials. Can you believe how chaty they were?I just wanted them to hand us our reward, but they were just, "talk talk talk talk talk."

IS HE SERIOUS? How many times have you told him (through your screen) to Shut the #$@ UP!Have you ever wanted to be able to reach into your game and beach slap (heh heh... gotta keep the adminions happy) an NPC as much as him?

For WarlocksObviously do the dps casters one. Send your void to him. He focuses on him alone. Then just keep standing behind him as attacks are more powerful, and just wear him down. This was after the preliminary patch for the expansion coming Nov 2014. No deaths and just keep your demon healthy. Did with destruction warlock.
